What will the tag identify?
Separate reusable assets and fixed storage locations from disposable stock labels. Record the object type, expected service period and where staff need to see or scan the tag.
Inventory tags connect racks, bins, carts and reusable assets to a warehouse record. Select the code type from the scan workflow, then confirm viewing distance, surface and installation position.
How to narrow the range
Separate reusable assets, locations and disposable stock.
Choose barcode, QR code or visible serial by workflow.
Test the actual rack, bin, cart or equipment surface.

Warehouse application guide
Warehouse tags work only when the physical label and the inventory record use the same identifier. Define the asset, scanning method, surface and data file before choosing a size.
Separate reusable assets and fixed storage locations from disposable stock labels. Record the object type, expected service period and where staff need to see or scan the tag.
Use the code already supported by the warehouse workflow. A barcode suits a defined scanner process, a QR code can open a web record, and a printed serial number gives staff a readable fallback.
Polyester is a low-profile starting point for clean indoor surfaces. Anodized aluminum gives a metal face and includes adhesive or mechanical mounting choices in this Category. Confirm cleaning, impact and exposure on the quote.
Base the size on code density, scanner distance, human-readable text and the available flat area. Leave space around the code and keep it clear of edges, seams and moving parts.
Adhesive needs a clean contact area. Mounting holes, screws or rivets need an approved location and hole pattern. Test powder coat, texture, oil exposure and low-energy plastics before a full run.
Use one spreadsheet row per tag. Keep asset ID, barcode value, QR destination and visible text in separate columns, preserve leading zeros and identify any number ranges that must not be used.
Test when the surface is curved, textured, coated, oily, repeatedly cleaned or exposed to condensation. Use the actual warehouse surface and cleaning method, not a substitute panel.
Send the asset or location type, tag size, quantity, code format, data file, surface photo, mounting preference and any cleaning or exposure conditions.
Use these as RFQ inputs. The approved Product and quote control the final specification.
| Condition | Starting point | Confirm before production |
|---|---|---|
| Clean indoor asset or location surface | Polyester or thin anodized aluminum with adhesive | Surface finish, contact area and cleaning method |
| Metal rack, cart or equipment with approved drilling | Anodized aluminum with mounting holes | Hole centers, fastener and clearance behind the surface |
| Scanner-led inventory workflow | Barcode plus human-readable asset ID | Symbology, scanner distance and data length |
| Phone access to a web record | QR code plus short visible serial number | Destination URL, access permissions and code size |
